this country needs and deserves a better republican party. and there are a lot of people in the republican right now who want a better republican party who are trying to push it there. those people, i think include key leaders in the party, like the house republican leaders this week who are trying to talk their members down from the ledge. they include folks like david brooks who in saying that republicans look deeply unreasonable, they are telling republicans you are being unreasonable. you need to move to the center. the structure of their argument a bit weird, but they're pushing in the right direction. for the republican party to fix itself will require a painful process, in which insane voices stare up and stare down, the elements of the coalition, and we need them to do it. we need them to win. >>> coming up, the gun legislation could save more lives in the assault weapons ban. >>> and later, the story that is is not getting nearly the attention it deserves. >> with hotwire's low prices, i can afford to visit chicago for my first big r

wing of the republican party keeping the flame alive. no one tailors their policies because it was what romney supported in the 2012 campaign. no one feels like they need to be loyal to the romney position on any issue. and in the conservative media this week, quote, some republicans believe the rnc ceded too much control of the party's message to the romney campaign, which was happy to run the show in the confidence that romney would soon be elected president. the result was catastrophic. republicans are even talking about undoing the procedural rules that mr. romney established for the delegate process, and they're putting news of that effort out into the press. the republicans want you to know that they're getting rid of everything romney. they are taking a hot bleach shower. they are making a very public display of expunging all evidence of his candidacy. because he obviously was the problem with the republican party. he must have been. everything else has been awesome. and that's why they're keeping everything else. the other thing

african-americans are to the democratic party what the entire republican party is to the republican party. >> i thought that was well-said. michael, this didn't start, so we don't think we're the only people on the planet, this generation, my dad worked in navy intelligence in south philly all through the war. he was an enlisted guy, chief petty officer. near the end of his life, he would still believe roosevelt had something to do with pearl harbor. that he knew it was coming because he wanted to get in the war against the nazis. your experience of talking on the radio with people, do you sense this idea that there's always some liberal in washington doing something and horrible to the country like letting us get attacked and losing our pacific fleet on purpose, which would have been not only grounds for impeachment, but execution if he got caught doing something like that. i don't care if he was roosevelt. >> chris, i'm always willing to give a good ear to a conspiracy theory. they're entertaining, but what's different is now they're being presented in a cohesive fashion for a political

party and start our own, if you will, subgroup because right now the republican party doesn't represent what we want it to be. >> i don't see that kind of splintering, but i would echo things like rubio and potentially even ted cruz bring a different kind of strength to potential compromise. they both have some strong relationships with the tea party, but they also have some issues that they come to and say we can do this, and that's really the question. can you compromise from a position of strength rather than weakness? there's no doubt that both parties have issues in this current climate where any kind of work across the aisle is seen as disloyal. on the democratic side i would point to senator ron widen who has clearly reached across the aisle on entitlement and spending and who is an organize senator strong on a lot of issues, including civil liberties and health care who is not seen by any kind of democrat a sellout. >> we've talked about the process. talked about who someone might be. let's talk about the language that people might use and what was written in an article titled w

this is the republican party platform. when the democrats propose spending, the republicans attack them for it. i mention always the $716 billion in medicare savings or spending cuts the president proposed last year. mitt romney attacked him for that. the republicans attacked him on that. the republicans can't even agree themselves on their spending cuts. remember the original ryan plan, newt gingrich called it right-wing social engineering. so when john boehner comes together with his plan b in december, there's no unanimity or consensus in the republican party about that. i think the gop has to get its own house in order. >> they're all screwed up. that's what i'm saying. >> but they're the ones who talk about spending cuts -- >> base is going to -- >> you know the base of the republican party better than i do but i think the republican base doesn't have anywhere to go. >> they go home to sleep. they can watch tv. they can watch a sporting event. they can have a couple of beers. believe me. you're seeing the base. you ev
